Apps stalling e-rickshaws ordered to be taken down

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) has also warned that any other applications found to be facilitating similar activities would face similar action.

In the past few days, several videos have been circulating on social media allegedly showing e-rickshaws suddenly coming to a halt after reportedly being switched off remotely. Such an act has left the drivers stranded and has also posed a risk to public safety.
